With an Android app in development, we are pleased to announce the launch of our all-new mind-blowing iPhone app. As the first SA app to feature multimedia news and video alongside live-presented streaming radio, the app has the following features:
News
- – The user is able to browse the 2oceansvibe news stream as it hits the web.
- – Videos featured in posts can be watched on the app, allowing the user to tilt their phone sideways, for full-screen viewing.
- – Gallery posts allow the user to pinch/zoom into images.
- – Posts can be shared via SMS, email, Facebook and Twitter.
Radio
- – As the most advanced iPhone radio app in South Africa, this portion of our development is truly remarkable. Featuring:
- – Listen Live screen lets the user view the artist name and song title, as well as album cover artwork.

- – Songs can also be bought directly from the Listen Live screen.
